Send HTTPS Request to SharePoint: Cannot find resource for the request Comments

Posted on by JM-13031426-0

My goal is to use this HTTPS Request to interact with the Comments field on a submitted form. Strangely, my solution was working just a couple days ago, yet it has suddenly started producing this error.

My activity URI is: /_api/web/lists/getbytitle('Intake Requests')/items()/Comments

Headers are: Content-Type: application/json;odata=nometadata and Accept: application/json;odata=nometadata

I have confirmed that the field is still named 'Comments' and that the list of submitted forms is still named 'Intake Requests'. What else could have caused this error to start out of nowhere?

Hi

If I understand correctly, you mean you want to get the list item comments?

Check the following:

@Ellis Karim Not quite... it's confusing, I know!

Rather than the actual Comments section (what you were discussing in your response and on your blog) I want to access a field on a submitted form, that happens to be named 'Comments'. I have included a visual example below. I did try your solution just in case, but sadly, it was not applicable to my situation. If you have any other ideas, please let me know!

Hi @JM-13031426-0,

Try:

_api/web/lists/getbytitle('Intake Requests')/items?$select=Comments&$top=5000

This should return up to 5000 items (if your list contains that many). SharePoint won’t return more than 5000 items in a single query. If you have more than 5000 items in your list, you will need to use pagination with @odata.nextLink.

Please share screen shots of the flow and any error messages.
